Country property name sign – part 6 evening photos
As expected difficult to take night photos of something like this – eyeballing the sign looks good (y). On the Samsung J7 Pro went into Camera Pro mode to manually adjust exposure aperture iso etc but ran out of energy – back to the recliner.
Here is a outdoor mock-up of the sign with Jasmine in the background and Cactus up front. Found a timber post behind the garage to knock up a sign post.

Making a frame that will be glued and tacked onto the back of the sign. The strips of timber I am using are from a carton of ALDI garden stakes, very handy for woodworking…
Off to the workshop to cut the last 2&1/2 letters and during cutting the last segment of the very last letter (the M) we had a break-out – bugger
Setting up to cut the last segment of the last letter – yay
